US EditionPrague Intelligence Says China's Plot to Stage Crash Against Taiwan Vice-President Remained in Planning
PRAGUE, CZECH REPUBLIC, JUN 29 – Czech military intelligence exposed an unprecedented Chinese plan to intimidate Taiwan's Vice President during her visit by staging a car crash, which remained in the planning stage.
- Taiwan's Vice-President Hsiao Bi-khim visited Prague in March 2024, during which Czech military intelligence reported that Chinese diplomats planned to stage a car crash targeting her motorcade.
- The plan followed escalating tensions and cooling relations between the Czech Republic and China, with Chinese diplomats allegedly violating diplomatic rules and physically following Hsiao.
- Czech authorities summoned the Chinese ambassador to address the incident, and Taiwan’s Mainland Affairs Council condemned the actions as a serious threat to Hsiao’s safety, while Hsiao thanked Czech officials for their protection.
- On June 28, Hsiao stated on social media that the CCP's unlawful activities will not intimidate her from voicing Taiwan's interests, underscoring Taiwan's commitment to democracy and freedom.
- China denied wrongdoing by its diplomats, accused the Czech Republic of interfering in its internal affairs by allowing Hsiao's visit, and reiterated that its diplomats abide by host country laws amid ongoing tensions over Taiwan's status.
